No pun intended - the movie is quite the slow burn and of course Mayday has nothing to do with a specific month, but ... well I don't think I have to explain this to you actually. The movie does give us a story that has more meaning to it than the surface reveals. The main characters have quite the ordeal to go through - and we follow them.
You have to be patient though - especially in the beginning the movie may lose you. So depending on your suspense of disbelief and your patience ... you may like this more or less than others. I think the score right now is way too low. While I can see that some have issues with "flaws" or the story and the characters themselves, it really is not as bad as it seems to be (if you only look at the rating) ... on the other hand I am known to rate too high, so there is that too.
